Automatic Advancement Scheme - Age of 50yrs Clarification
The document is a memo issued by the Government of Andhra Pradesh Finance (PC-II) Department on February 4, 2012, providing clarification regarding the Automatic Advancement Scheme (AAS) under the Revised Pay Scales (RPS) 2010. It addresses the eligibility of Category-III teachers for the Special Promotion Post Scale-II (SPP-II) under AAS, specifically concerning exemptions from departmental tests for teachers who have crossed 50 years of age.
Key points:
- Teachers appointed by direct recruitment after attaining the age of 50 years are exempted from passing departmental tests for promotion purposes, as per G.O.Ms.No.95 Education (Services-I) Department dated May 27, 2005. However, this exemption does not apply to the Automatic Advancement Scheme.
- Teachers recruited before the age of 50 are not eligible for exemption from departmental tests for promotion to SPP-II under AAS.
- Claims for SPP-II scale without acquiring the prescribed qualifications for promotion are not in accordance with the rules of AAS.
- The memo reiterates that there has been no change or deviation in the rules since the issuance of earlier instructions in Memo.No.21073/193/PC-II/2009 dated February 21, 2009, and subsequent government orders.
The memo was issued by Dr. P.V. Ramesh, Principal Secretary to the Government, and forwarded to relevant authorities for further action and dissemination of instructions.
